Wrinakkd Varieties - Conl ' d - 



Eclipse.— As early as any extra early smooth variety. The vines are strong 

 and robust, growing to a height of twenty to twenty-five inches. The pods are 

 large and of a verv dark green color, very prolific and highly flavored. Qt., 

 20c; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.50 



Gradus, or Prosperity Peas.— Comparatively new, of English origin, is an 

 extra early wrinkled variety, very prolific with large dark green pods, of a 

 very fine flavor. Vines grow from 2J^ to 3 feet. The peas remain tender and 

 swe'et for a long time after they are large enough to use, as the vines continue 

 in bearing for some little time after the first pods are ready. We consider it 

 one of the most desirable for the family garden or home use. Qt., 25c; peck, 

 $1.75; bush., $6.00. ' . 



(New) Thomas Laxton.— This new variety is of the same growth with that 

 of the Gradus, but is usually three or four days later for market, while the 

 large peas are a deeper, rich green. The pods are square at the end instead 

 of having a long, sloping point, and is considered by some to be of a better 

 flavor than Gradus. Qt., 25c; peck, $1.50; bush., $5.50. 



American Wonder.— This is a dwarf variety, and leads all others m point of 

 earliness, growing about 10 inches high, and produces a profusion of good 

 sized, well filled pods, with finest flavored peas. Qt., 20c; peck, $1.25; 

 bush.', $4.50. ' , ,. 



McLean's Advancer.— About the best second early on the list, a green 

 wrinkled variety about two and a-h a lf feet high, long pods, abundantly prolific 

 and well filled. Qt., 20c ; peck, 90c.; bush., $3.50. 



Telephone. — A tall wrinkled marrow, 

 enormously productiveand of best quality.

 pods to the stalk . The pods are of a large 

 size. A desirable sort for the family gar- 

 den. Qt., 20c; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.50. 

 Dwarf Giant Podded Prolific Green 

 Marrow. — This variety has become a 

 favorite with the consumer as well as 

 grower. Vines of a strong growth with 

 a large dark green foliage, but only eigh- 

 teen to twenty-inches in height and do 

 not need to be supported. Pods of large

e+i/\N\P l0t? 



Champion of England. — A universal 

 favorite, delicious flavor, profuse bearer 

 of large pods, filled well with large green 

 wrinkled peas. Height about four feet. 

 Qt., 20c; peck, 90c; bush., $3.00. 



Dwarf Champion. — This is a dwarf- 

 growing strain of the popular Champion 

 of England, which for many years has 

 been the standard large-podded late or 

 main crop variety. While growing only 

 two feet in height, it retains all the 

 excellence of the parent tall variety. In 

 warm soils and locations this dwarf type 

 will give better results than the old strain. 

 The vines are strong, but short-jointed 

 and stocky in growth, setting large pods 

 very freely. The pods are three inches 

 in length, round and well filled to the 

 end. Qt., 20c; peck, $1.10; bush., 

 $4.00. 



Nott's Excelsior.— One of the best early Dwarf Peas. It combines the good qualities of 

 the American Wonder and Premium Gem Peas. The vines are larger and more productive than 

 American Wonder and earlier than Premium Gem. The peas in sweetness and quality unsur- 

 passed. Qt., 20c; pecK. $1.25; bush., $4.50. 



Premium Gem. — This variety is nearly as early as the American Wonder and the very 

 productive vine is decidedly larger, growing to a height of from fifteen to eighteen inches The 

 pods are lars»e and crowded with six to eight very large peas of fine quality. Qt., 20c; pecK, 

 $1.15, bush., $4.00. 



YorKshire Hero. — A most popular and extremely productive second-early variety, growing 

 two and a-half feet in height. The vine is close-jointed and thickly hung with round well-filled 

 pods three inches in length. Peas are of good size, tender, and of very sweet flavor. From its 

 short stocky growth and great productiveness it is also one of the most profitable varieties to 

 plant in the field for market. Qt.. 20c; pecK, $1.00; bush., $3.50. 



Daisy, or Dwarf Telephone (New.) — This new variety is a second early, of robust but 

 remarkably even growth. The vines are from sixteen to eighteen inches high, needing nobrush. 

 The self-supporting, stout plants are fairly loaded with large, bright green pods, which are 

 always well filled. Each pod contains from seven to nine large peas of a light bright green 

 color, tender and well flavored. Qt., 20c, pecK. $1,25; bush., $5.00.
